Star Empire

The death tide can break time. This conclusion is obtained through observation and induction of a large number of actual results.

When the Great Fault Zone crashed into the vast and long borders of the empire, the violent impact was enough to disrupt or even tear apart the stable timeline formed by the interconnection of countless worlds. This will result in many events that should be connected to each other, showing linear connections between micro and macro, showing stable sequential and iterative correlations with each other, as if they are independent of each other.

They ignore the original covariant unity, manifest it in a metaphysical way, and begin to evolve and advance without interfering with each other on many seemingly independent foundations - they should be unified.

This is another powerful and powerful manifestation of nonlinear time and nonlinearity - usually, time is stable and relatively covariant, which is no problem. The fact that it is not revealed or reflected does not mean that these are not common in the past. The possibilities and more often the results that can only be calculated will not be revealed in reality.

Everything is possible in the void, and it is possible to form any form of order in the void.

These radical changes are just "one" of the many aspects of the Death Wave incident that are worthy of being remembered, recorded, and worth spending huge efforts and resources to study.

The impact of the fault zone was extremely huge. Countless once stable and safe realities crashed into the black tide. Countless warships and lives perished under the erosion of black and red patterns. Countless attributes of existence fell into the boundless swamp and were swallowed bit by bit by the bottomless abyss.

There is too much congestion here, there is too much chaos here, there is too much grief here, there is too much here.

But for an empire that is still large enough even if it has experienced a very large-scale collapse, this impact can still be considered "local" - outside this area, there are still vast areas of the empire that are intact. In those areas, the old rules still hold, the old order still operates, the old structures still exist.

Countless power is transported from these still intact empire territories to dangerous areas full of cracks. Countless bloodline rivers shining in the void with the "three primary colors" of the empire of white, purple, and gold intertwine with each other, setting up a vast and boundless network. . The state machine is running roaringly, and there is an invisible giant hand that, while the crisis is destroying existence, is trying to hold everything up so that they will not completely collapse.

Beyond all of this, dangers and disasters cannot spread indefinitely, let alone be actively spread. For everyone, the order of our daily life environment and the content of our daily care has not been destroyed. Everything still needs to be maintained, order needs to operate as usual, and life still needs to be maintained normally.

Nothing should be done less.

…

"His Majesty Dornier, His Majesty Zhai Cahir, His Majesty Erwin, His Majesty Isendel, the Department of History, the Imperial Document Collection and Information Preservation Department, the Fourteenth District, the Fifteenth District, the Empire Construction Department Headquarters and The third meeting of multiple empire management entities such as the Order Silent Environment Analysis and Recording Department has made relatively clear preliminary arrangements for the next tasks, and all task details have been arranged simultaneously: "

“It has been determined that the current data preservation model has serious problems when faced with the impact of large-scale death tide structures. In the past, the preservation and backup of imperial data would be replicated in multiple copies and stored in areas with the research area as the midpoint. In the data storage database of the three intervals of the middle and outer zones, and in the corresponding intervals of the overall network, decentralized storage and field storage are carried out. This model can face all kinds of common death tide door impacts and the scope of influence is lower than the world context. The impact of the structural fault zone. But there is nothing we can do to face the large fault zone that appeared this time."

"The preservation of data has too strong traces of "local storage", which means that each piece of data will not be perfectly and detailedly preserved in other areas that are too far away from it. Network diffuse storage is also subject to similar restrictions. The restriction of the idea itself is to save resources, but such a large-scale fault zone directly hitting the empire's border will likely cause countless such "whole sections" to be severely damaged or even completely destroyed in an instant."

"Once such a situation occurs, the data in the corresponding interval will also be completely destroyed. At the same time, because the dead wave pollution area will be subject to extremely strict controls, even if the data or recorded data are not destroyed immediately, they It’s also very difficult to secure.”

"A considerable scale of "life preservation" incident has been recorded, but because facilities and workers across the empire are already in a considerable overpressure working condition, and because this part of the content must be comprehensively inspected after experiencing death tide contamination, the relevant data The preservation progress is much lower than expected, and unfortunately a lot of data and lives have been wasted."

"Well, the initial approach was to save network resources, but when it comes to such a large-scale fault zone, it is really not suitable." Faced with these report documents that were finally selected and submitted to him, Eisendel responded seriously. .

"This incident can confirm that the preservation scope of a systematic data with an acquaintance search tree should be greatly improved. Based on this fault zone outbreak event, if the safety redundancy and multi-factor consideration combination coefficients are superimposed, The scope of data preservation needs to be expanded to span at least half the empire.”

"That is, on the basis of maintaining all the original disposal measures, we should go to the core area of ​​the empire based on the data preservation area, and delineate at least three levels of intervals in this area, and keep at least four copies of the same material in each level. , two copies are saved in real form, one is saved in the entire network structure in a diffuse state, and the other is saved in the field structure of the corresponding interval."

"Finally, considering the problem of data synchronization, priority should be given to using special fuse lines to connect corresponding data to maintain necessary synchronization at normal times. However, once abnormal conditions such as information backflow occur, the overall structure must be cut off in time. Considering For the future survival and development of the empire, precious data cannot be lost, and it is urgent to carry out reforms in related methods."

"Eisendel, you are right, but doing so itself will greatly increase the burden on the network. At the same time, it will also put forward more stringent requirements on the network's information throughput and existence attribute stability at a very high level. Require."

Zhai Cahill responded, "We are currently conducting a redundancy assessment on the network structure. At the same time, there are corresponding groups studying specific network structures. Currently, the relatively complete "conduction bundle" information transfer channel and the macro-narrative system are relied upon. The "narrative interval" merger is still being tested. The void survey radar is not enough to record the transfer of such a large-scale information structure. They can play a supporting role, but now that there is a serious drop in attributes, we must rely on more Hardware equipment can maintain the stability of the infrastructure.”

"Don't worry too much."

"Doniel?" Everyone almost turned their attention to this special emperor, "What do you think?"

"For the whole, the fragments and the whole are connected to each other. The "ascension" that emergence can provide will be clearly reflected in such a large scale. When the structural whole of the attribute network creates a higher level of connection and communication, method, then the performance improvement of the entire network will be far from being as simple as summing up - the redundant part is currently not suitable for direct consideration in design, but this update can provide similar large-scale tasks in the future. Accumulating data and experience, after all, such a large-scale mission may not be common.”

"From what I, my team, and my abilities can consider, I hope to set up enough "stabilizing anchors" around the most important data centers and important lines, so that they can be used when a huge impact comes. It can also offset drastic changes brought about by the external environment and enhance the stability of the data system itself."

"At the same time, considering that the death wave impact, especially the early stage of the fault zone impact, is likely to be mixed with intelligent disturbances, then even if the data is saved separately, we cannot rule out that such dangerous factors do not include narrative bombing. This kind of "attack" has a deep and wide impact. I suggest that it can be done."

"The battlefield ahead is unstable, and the connection strength between the thread and the main body has decreased. The mapping is being adjusted, the connection is being reacquired, the retrieval is completed, and purification and detection are being performed."

"We can consider superimposing false realities in large libraries in each district to generate false targets through multiple similar environments to reduce the possibility of damage to real targets."

"It has been recorded, the relevant content has been further determined, the direction has been clarified, and preliminary tasks can be started. The next meeting will begin after the actual project begins to progress, to deal with the difficulties that may be encountered in the relevant process, and to clear up the possibilities that are not expected now." properties and variables and modify relevant details."

"End of the meeting."

As the temporarily established communication channel was closed, the people attending the meeting returned to two different worlds - the emperors and their corresponding teams continued to face the huge structure spreading boundless darkness, while the rest, in their own Those who were at their original posts and adhered to their responsibilities quickly took action.

They mobilized their forces, prepared applicable tools, applied for corresponding permissions and service responses, and in the shortest possible time, significantly refined and improved the data division map of the entire empire. At the same time, the eyes from the void began to retrace the details and search for all possible breaks and loopholes. The empire's team was not afraid of making mistakes and omissions, let alone correcting their own mistakes and facing possible omissions.

A sealed light will be sent to the Void Blazing Sun. When all this is over, if all goes well, a new number and name will be engraved outside the endlessly extending eternal light pillar.

"The History Department, the Combat and Strategic Assessment Research Group, the Zero, One, Two, and Three District Think Tanks, the Infinity Research Group, and the Cross-level Interactive Experiment and Detailed Development Research Department have already conducted some research on current battles and past related data. By comparing and matching aspects, we have now put forward new perspectives on some details in omnidirectional combat, and a considerable part of the relevant arguments have been strongly confirmed."

""Rank Effects" on Attack, Existence, and Evolution."

"Currently, there are two basic structures for the division of void levels that are known within the empire. The first type of division is relatively simple, that is, everything can be included in the three levels of mortal-world/extraordinary information-void."

"The second type of division method divides the existence attributes into nine levels, and its representative structure is the "Nine Heavens" structure in the "Nine Heavens" system launched by the Σ Quadrant Continent. Due to the serious loss of relevant data, it is impossible to determine each layer of the sky How much content does it correspond to, but what can be roughly determined is that the part that the seventh layer of sky can correspond to is roughly similar to the second level in the three-level division method. And the rest of the structure, it seems at present, may be the corresponding level A further addition to the ‘desert’ between.”

"At present, we do not have any evidence to prove the following speculation. The results given by the narrative exploration method cannot be used as convincing evidence for the time being. Therefore, the relevant content only remains at the hypothesis stage. If necessary, it should not be regarded as confirmed. If there are any new developments or special circumstances, please calibrate with the relevant person in charge and obtain the corresponding authorization and approval: "

"Although the results of the two basic classification methods are similar, their purposes seem to be quite different. Based on the detailed differences in the research, it can be judged that the first classification method is closer to "use", while the second classification method is closer to "use". The hierarchical division method is closer to "cognition" - it is speculated here that before us, perhaps even before Σ or at a certain period parallel to Σ, there may have been other forms of extremely powerful void civilization."

"The void civilization in these theories may take a completely different path from Σ. They may be born with strong physical fitness and a fairly high basic starting point, so their way of delineating everything in the world does not need to be too precise and detailed. The basic three-level division is enough for them to use, and it is enough for them to face and deal with the difficulties and unknown possibilities in the void."

"The division method adopted by Σ is more suitable for civilizations like us that develop step by step from the mundane area, from the surface structure of the world, and into the void - such a division structure is more conducive to understanding the structure of the world, and at the same time it can Identifying more "guiding ladders" can, to a large extent, avoid stagnating the development of civilization due to energy level deserts and other similar existences."

"In addition, there are some vague evidences that may reveal traces of powerful civilizations that existed or still exist in the void. However, these traces are currently too vague to obtain corresponding details, so the "verification" process is also hindered. "

"This is historical speculation, and these contents deserve to be well preserved. If necessary, a sufficiently accurate assignment content should be sealed until it is preserved in the future." Cavinriel and Arcane Life IV serve as supervisors, After confirming that the relevant information was properly sealed, the conversation moved to the next topic: "As for attacks and evolution, in a larger sense, it can be considered as the interaction between information bodies. What is the new content determined in this part?"

"Based on the data preserved from many battles and the historical files restored by the Department of History, we have sorted out some relevant new viewpoints. Some of these relevant viewpoints may further change our understanding of ΣCivilization. Understanding, or these perspectives can further explain why our civilization can still exist here."

"Influence coefficient. It is possible that the weighting details and detailed program have been confirmed, which may have a greater impact." Cavernrel passed the authorization application for further summary of the report, "From this point of view... we can only say that it is not ruled out that Σ will collapse in the past. , their ability to control themselves, or their ability to execute residual orders... is much stronger than we expected."

"That's right, Your Majesty. Based on what we have learned, what we can determine is that there are various fields and levels of order. These fields and levels have different depths, breadths, and depths of connection with each other. They overlap. Forming a ladder of existence. At present, we are not sure whether the ladder of existence has a clear top, but what we can say is that it can be divided into various fields that we currently generally accept according to content similar to a hierarchical structure. These fields Some are superficial, while others are very important and have a very wide influence. They are the cornerstone of the existence and operation of all things, at least part of them.”

"By choosing between these areas, we can attack different targets at different levels and depths - if we are attacking a native star, if we are just thinking about the surface implications of attacking its foundation, then we just need to Lock the precise spatial coordinates where it is located, and then directly output the artillery fire after considering the possible effects of interference factors such as gravity - in that case, the artillery fire formed by extraordinary information such as crystal energy will only be marked in the most superficial uniform space. Make a path and hit the target."

"The target itself will be destroyed, but after the target's body disappears, all the effects it leaves behind will follow the usual rules - for example, the lack of gravity it causes will affect celestial bodies closer to it, and its light will go out, and the starry sky will There may be one less bright spot, but these will spread out as usual and follow the previous rules. It is still what it is, but the main body has disappeared, and no other events will occur beyond the rules it follows..."

"However, if we use one of its alienated Three Order coordinates as a locking point, we may kill it in the future or past within this closed system. At the same time, the information operation of the entire world will be simultaneously disturbed. , these interferences and influences will no longer be limited to the present, to the current plane of reality at this moment.”

"If we target the real existence, then the real information assigned to the star itself from the moment it is generated in the practical application layer will be deleted. All the gravitational disturbances it has created, and all the real information it has created will be deleted. All matter that has been affected, all physical traces and actual history of it will cease to exist. If we directly carry out narrative bombing targeting its omnidirectional structure, then nothing will be left of it. In extreme cases, Even we ourselves have no memory of our actions."

Cavinrel took over the conversation - even though these contents have been mentioned and thought about before, but to be mentioned and recorded in such a formal way, it will make him think of the past that has been blurred and chaotic but still burning, and his heart Deep down, some resistance and avoidance tendencies arise from nowhere that shouldn't exist.

"Yes, Your Majesty, it is indeed the case. Standing at different heights and launching attacks with different purposes, the effects can be hugely different, even with the same weapon. There is no doubt that the decisive battle flagship of ΣCivilization has the ability to bombard And the ability to annihilate narrative structure. They have interacted with us at many different levels over time – in the form of war.”

"According to the records recovered by the Department of History and His Majesty Vesrifan, in the last era, the decisive battle flagship has already demonstrated the ability to control narratives, but they have never used Doomsday Creation to launch a true, A super-large-scale narrative bombardment that is enough to target the foundation of all traces of our existence. Those effects that show harm to the narrative structure and omnidirectional reality are more like being inevitably implicated in "scratching" and finally destroyed..."

"Therefore, because Σ purposefully controlled and influenced the operations of these powerful existences both overtly and covertly, we did not collapse at that time. We battled the flagship, and our control of Σ gradually deepened within a considerable range. These gradual changes Deepening allows us time to adapt to changes without causing us to give up directly. At the same time... it may be precisely because of the continuous adjustment of those parts that we cannot see that we can collect the actual performance covariance corresponding to the same performance with such a huge gap. This individual situation..."

"I'm afraid the rest can be traced back to the end of the last era - that's very close to now. The Quadrant Continent launched the dead light. If His Majesty Weisrifan's statement is correct, it was a real super attack. Then When the Dao Light wipes out our existence attributes, it also erases the parts of our bodies and souls that are closely related to Σ. We have relied too much on these parts in the past, and relied on these parts to achieve too great a span of ascension, which has led to Our decline has continued since that battle and has not completely stopped yet... No matter what moment, Σ has the ability to completely erase us."

Having said this, the deepest part of Cavinriel's soul still trembled - just because these words were placed here, in front of him and others for communication, does not mean that these words are only the results of these people. Each sentence itself may be the final result obtained after billions of individuals distributed at different levels have examined and calculated it for who knows how long.

It is precisely because of this that all content has enough "weight".

"We also know all this - the truth is actually not complicated, but when we prove the parts that we think we need to convince, when we really face these contents... accepting it still requires sufficient preparation."

"...Thank you, you all worked hard." After a moment of silence, Cavinrel's thread greeted the people who submitted this report. "At the same time, I also order you not to forget your daily tasks and your own work - it is true that there are too many difficulties now, and the assistants and redundancies around you may have been transferred. I know all this, and the empire should know Everyone knows it. Here, I once again order everyone - remember not to stop your original work, the empire is still functioning! The empire did encounter disaster, but it did not stop because of this!"

"yes!"

…

"Teacher, there are...a lot less people here." In the depths of a galaxy that is inconspicuous in a giant ribbon structure in a certain universe, a person with a childish soul and will spoke with his guidance in a somewhat restrained manner. The reporter greeted, "Have they... all gone to the front line?"

"...Yes, the empire's border has encountered a major crisis, and many people have been transferred to support there." In the observation cabin that is closed and presents a complete entity, J-94632k35, the representative entity of Alikaya's synevolution matrix After explaining the data that needed to be processed, he turned around a little tiredly and looked at 13-4-4-usnb6454358, "That's true."

"ah……"

"By the way, usnb6454358, you asked me before to observe these and see what they are for." Alikaya activated a command, and the holographic window formed by the stream of light instantly changed from the broad window with the surrounding walls. Layers upon layers of curtain wall structure emerge, and these holographic windows mark star maps, the orbits of planets through the ages, scenes that may represent the daily scenes of thousands of civilizations, and millions of various Such number.

"Have you learned the basics of the Empire by heart?"

"Yes, teacher."

"Then, the following content may need to be understood by your own senses combined with the purpose of the empire - we do these, we see these, we care about our way, enforce the overall respect for the individual, enforce the strong respect for the individual, We must respect the weak, carry out our unfinished missions in the past, and abide by the promises we have not kept." Alikaya paused for a while, ". Also, we ourselves, as an empire as a whole, do what we can do to individuals. Show respect.”

"The empire itself is too huge. If the empire is regarded as a solid and complete whole, this whole is beyond any one of us, including almost all our emperors. If this whole needs someone, or some individuals give up themselves interests, then this or these individuals can be said to have no room for maneuver or buffering.”

"But the current empire does not do this - you have also seen that although a large number of individuals have been transferred to the front line and to the battlefield, they have not been forced in a real and substantial sense - maybe not yet To achieve perfection, but the empire is protecting the interests of all existence. Among mortal civilizations, I have seen people doing the same as us, or even better than us, and I have also seen large-scale defections and mutinies as a result."

"Teacher, this"

"It may be a little confusing, but I hope you can finally understand the meaning of these phenomena - no matter how difficult it is, no matter how many problems there are, no matter how tricky the reality is, before the real end of the world comes, everyone's life needs to continue - -The same goes for the empire as a whole, the individual empire, and all the wisdom under the empire. Life needs goals, order, stability, and direction. While we are protecting our own lives, we will also have some spare efforts here. It is used to maintain other people and maintain the life and operation of those civilizations. Of course, this will have a more utilitarian view, but in my opinion, this is all."

"The empire's knowledge network is endless, but how to understand, how to comprehend, and how to finally determine the bright color that belongs to you depends on yourself." Erica finally shook her head gently, "This environment may not be suitable for teaching now. What, this part cannot be taught, it is likely to be a self-change that goes deep into the soul, and you need to understand it yourself, with enough time and rich enough experiences."

"No matter how difficult the reality is, life must go on until the end of the world."

The empire's state machinery is operating with a bang. The vast ruins, collapsed existence attributes, scattered wreckage, miserable wails and countless existences have not hindered the operation of the empire, the life that should continue, and have not hindered the operation of the empire's state machinery. . On the contrary, it will be more powerful.

In the void, blazing white arrowheads rose again, and countless of them took advantage of the brilliant sunlight to pounce on the terrifying black tide. They crossed the gap between reality and void, and fell from nothingness to reality like a heavy rain. They penetrated deeply into the decayed structure, and once again tore off large chunks of flesh and blood from the shattered decaying barrier, tearing out shocking rips.

Facing order, facing the double attack of the powerful existence in front of it and itself, this huge and terrifying giant structure is rapidly decaying and heading toward collapse.

It's just a matter of time between when the structure survives and when the collapse dissipates.
